History

The Uniting Church is one of a group of significant heritage buildings in
Brockman St, the main street of Pemberton.
The 1920s was a period of growth in Pemberton. Significant buildings
sprang up in the main street, Brockman St, including the Mill Workers
Hall, the School, the Pemberton Hotel, the Methodist Church, and the
Picture Theatre. These are still intact today, and the main street precinct
has high streetscape and heritage value.
In the 1970s there was a move to merge some Christian churches in
Australia. On 22 June 1977 the Uniting Church was formed as a result of
a union of the Congregational Church of Australia, the Methodist Church
of Australia and the Presbyterian Church of Australia. As a result this
church was renamed the Uniting Church.
